How to make Halloumi Quinoa Bowl

Tips from the cook

  • Rinse the quinoa before cooking, so it does not taste bitter.
  • Pat the chickpeas dry before roasting, so they turn crispy.
  • Shake the tray halfway through roasting. An air fryer works too.
  • Flip the halloumi so the honey side touches the pan, for a caramelised crust.
